Q

What are the “acquired” process?

A
  • Macrophage engulfs foreign material
  • Macrophage selects and processes an antigen
  • Macrophage presents antigen wrapped in MHC-2 proteins to CD4 lymphocyte
  • CD4 lymphocyte presents antigen to B cell and CD8 T-cell
  • Antigen must be wrapped in MHC-1 proteins for CD8 cell to accept it
  • B-cell converts to plasma cell and produces antibodies
  • CD8 cell produces cytokines

A

7.0

46
Q

what is the ionic strength for the reaction to take place

A

47
Q

what is zeta potential

A

force of repulsion between RBC

48
Q

Low ionic strength solution is used to do what

A

lower the overall positive and negative ions in solution

76
Q

what does codominant mean

A

one does not suppress another

77
Q

A and B genes are codominant, what does this mean

A

ONE DOES NOT SUPPRESS THE OTHER

IF YOU INHERIT BOTH, YOU PRODUCE BOTH ANTIGENS

78
Q

what are haplotypes

A

genes very close together
inherited as a group MNSs is an example
M and N are alleles
S and s are alleles

79
Q

what does it mean when a person as an antibody

A
  • PATIENT LACKS THE ANTIGEN
  • PATIENT BUILT AN ANTIBODY
  • ANY DONOR BLOOD TO BE TRANSFUSED MUST LACK THE ANTIGEN
80
Q

what are the steps with needing units with multiple antibodies

A

FInd the occurrence of the antigen in general population
take negative occurrences of antigen and multiple them
use ratio and proportion to determine how many donor units of blood to screen

81
Q

what exclusion for ABO paternity

A

crossover
deletions
suppressions

82
Q

what is HLA

A

human leukocyte antigens

83
Q

HLA is on all cells in the body except

A

RBC(erythrocytes)

84
Q

HLA antibodies cause what kind of transfusion reactions

A

chill and fever

85
Q

what is the HLA antigen used for

A

paternity exclusion

86
Q

what do you do to IgM and IgG to change the zeta potential

Q

What is the dosage effect

A

test with antibody
KK- strong
